Just .22 pistols and rifles with my friends at their farm when I was younger. I enjoyed what little shooting I've done and am interested in finding out more about it. Here are a few questions: Where can one shoot? Are shooting ranges usually full of crazed survivalists types or will I find reasonable and friendly people there? Will I have to purchase a gun to use or will ranges provide guns? What costs are involved? What books should I read to learn more? Any words of advice would be appreciated!
